East of new Rome is a steep mountain area. The mountains here fluctuate. The low ones are only 200 meters high, while the high ones can reach thousands. A mountain peak in the East is more than 1700 meters high. The peak is sharp, like a sharp blade stabbing into the sky. Looking from a distance, it is almost connected with the dense radiation cloud in the sky, with endless bleak meaning.
That mountain is called the peak of doomsday.
Behind the peak of doomsday is a barren forest with towering ancient trees. However, unlike the primeval forests in the old times, the ancient trees here have tangled roots and look like twisted faces on the trees. They are scattered disorderly, turning the forest into a natural maze. It is winter now, the whole forest is covered with a layer of white frost, and even the low shrubs are subdued by the radiant snow.
But if someone underestimates these shrubs, he is obviously wrong. In this age of evolution, both ancient trees and shrubs are not as harmless as before. Even every plant and tree in the forest can not be despised. Some scholars believe that today's forests already have something similar to the will of clusters. If the soil of the forest is excavated, people will find that the roots of plants are almost connected with each other in the depths of the earth.
This state is like the online mode of intelligent brain pivot array, which makes the plants in the forest share each other's feelings and promotes the emergence of cluster will.
Therefore, the whole forest is like a huge monster. They hibernate quietly, and at the same time, they prey quietly.
This forest is also called black forest because both ancient trees and shrubs are dark brown.
Behind the black forest is the ruins of an old city. Now it is dilapidated, but you can still roughly see the outline of the city. Most of the densely covered buildings and tall buildings have been demolished. Either it was destroyed on the day of the great disaster, or it has collapsed after years of wind and snow erosion. Many buildings break at the waist, exposing the complex space like a honeycomb in the building.
Occasionally, we can see some strange figures moving in the building. The high-rise buildings are no longer owned by mankind. They have been occupied by the life of some new era.
The highway is broken and broken. They are barely connected to the city, but the transportation network has already collapsed.
In the East, a piece of ground has already collapsed, exposing the subway track below. Under the cover of large pieces of gravel, a subway car was exposed. The carriage was closed, and a dead body could be seen through the window. It was a boy's body. The water in the body had completely disappeared, but time fixed the frightened expression on the boy's face forever.
On the other side of the city, connected to the outside world, is a steel bridge. The bridge has been broken, and the fracture surface has traces of high-temperature combustion. I don't know that it has suffered the whole damage. The broken bridge has turned the city into an isolated city.
It can be said that the whole vast east land is basically a no man's land, and only some mutant animals will haunt here.
For example, now this horned eagle is flying over the dark forest.
Horned eagles are close relatives of vultures and are basically the same as their relatives. But the horned Eagle has a single horn on its head, like the sharp horn of the legendary unicorn, but now it grows on an eagle, which is also the origin of the name of the horned eagle. Horned eagle is a changeable creature. In order to adapt to the environment of the new era, its body is much larger than that of vulture, and its wings are extended to five meters.
Its claws are strong and powerful. It can easily catch tons of prey and tear open the tough bark of old trees. But its biggest weapon is actually the single horn on its head. This sharp corner is not long, less than 10 cm. But its root is as thick as a child's fist. Although its top is sharp and conical, if you look closely, you will find that it is not sharp.
The tip is actually a convex structure, which is composed of three pieces of bone. This makes the single horn not easy to break, and the thick root is more conducive to force. It's just that the attack method of this single horn is a bit similar to the tail needle of a wasp. It launches the single horn through a spray organ on the forehead of the horned eagle. The instantaneous kinetic energy is comparable to a sniper bullet. It can easily penetrate the armor, leaving fatal injuries on the prey.
Horned Eagles hovered in the sky. A heavy snow had just fallen recently, and the whole earth and forest were white. However, the eyesight of horned Eagles has been digitally enhanced. They can capture the smallest changes on the ground, and no prey can escape its eyes. If there's prey.
Winter is the season with the poorest food. The larger mutant animals will spend this season in the form of hibernation. They will eat hard in autumn to increase weight and fat, and then fight the cold winter at the cost of burning their own fat during hibernation. It has to be said that some instincts left over from old times are still very useful.
Unfortunately, the horned Eagle doesn't know this skill, so it can only hunt when the next snow doesn't come. It's just that such action doesn't harvest at all times. Most of the time they return empty handed, so many horned Eagles can't survive winter. In order to reproduce, this kind of species usually mate in summer and give birth in autumn. Then, in case they can't find food in winter, their bodies can become food for their offspring after death.
After all, horned eagles, like vultures, are scavengers. Through this, they ensure that their ethnic groups can reproduce.
After flying through most of the forest, the horned Eagle finally found a body in the southwest corner of the forest. It was a man's body. He lay on the ground with his back to the sky. It looked like it had been dead for a long time, but the horned Eagle didn't hurry to fly down. It circled in the sky to observe the body. In this year of great evolution of life, even animals have evolved great wisdom.
From the sky, this is a tall man. The body hasn't grown body spots yet. It should be just after death. A series of footprints left on the snow behind him showed that he tried to cross the forest, but he died halfway. Next to the man was a backpack. Some canned food fell out of it.
After hovering for ten minutes, the horned eagle was basically sure that the man was dead. Under its sharp eyes, the man's body didn't move for ten minutes. No one can lie still in the radiant snow for ten minutes, except the body. The horned eagle's rich experience made it make this judgment. With a cry of joy, it retracted its wings and rushed towards the body.
However, when it was a meter or two away from the body, it instinctively felt dangerous. Then he saw the body suddenly reach out and catch it. The horned eagle was frightened and wanted to fly. But an invisible energy force field was generated from the palm of the corpse, firmly tightened it and dragged it down.
The horned Eagle screamed and flapped its wings, but it couldn't stop itself from sinking to the ground. Finally, it cried out in despair, lowered its head and ejected a single horn on its forehead, hoping to win a chance to escape. However, the only corner comparable to the kinetic energy of a sniper bomb was easily held in the palm of the other hand of the body, and then casually threw it into the snow. Then the body turned over completely and showed a serious face.
Finally, the horned Eagle fell. The man held its claw in one hand, turned out a dagger in the other hand, instantly plunged into its abdomen and tore it up. The horned Eagle wailed, blood and intestines flowed out of the wound, and it finally lost all its strength.
Half an hour later, it cut its wings and plucked its hair, turned into a big fire chicken, strung it on a branch for a man and baked it on a fire.
Watching the golden horned Eagle gradually baked on the fire, Sinie's expression was very calm. However, in recent days, his experience has nothing to do with peace. Since escaping from Rome, Sinie has been on the run these days. The man hiding in the Solon palace followed suit. He didn't seem to be in a hurry to kill Sinie, but he always forced Sinie to flee to the East.
The man was so terrible that syne had used all the methods he knew. But whether it's a frontal attack or a sneak attack behind, it can't stop the man, even for a moment. In such a flight, Sinai had already eaten up the food with him. He could only kill some mutant animals on the road. At the most tense time, he can only eat raw.
But even so, because of winter, there is less and less food. Sometimes Sinai even needs to dig deep underground to occasionally find a nest of hibernating snow rabbits. A horned eagle as big as now is very precious food. Sinie decided to roast it and eat half of it at one go. The stored energy should be enough for him for three days.
Then cut the remaining Eagle meat into strips and take it away with ice and snow. As for the radiation in the snow, it was not considered by Sinie at all. Even if you eat a mouthful of radiation snow, it doesn't matter to his high level.
Soon, the horned eagle was cooked. The golden barbecue gives off an attractive smell of meat. Sinai tore off a piece of Eagle meat with oil flowers, put it in his mouth, and then crushed the eagle meat with his two rows of teeth. Eagle meat smells delicious, but the muscle fiber of horned eagle is very rough, so it doesn't taste good. But it can bring calories and nutrients, and Sinai has nothing to ask for.
After all, he is now on the run, not enjoying the treatment of a regimental commander in Rome.
As soon as he ate an eagle leg, Sinie moved in his heart. He sighed low, and even before he could pack his things, he saw a purple black line from a distance. Then the light flashed, like a slow disease. As soon as Sinai threw himself directly on the ground, the light flashed over his back, one after another over a lot of ancient trees, and finally disappeared when he flew into the top of a hill in the distance.
Then, countless ancient trees in the forest fell around and roared. The hill where the light is submerged is misplaced and slipped, turning into tons of gravel, rolling all the way to the ground, raising a smoke mixed with stone dust and snow powder.
Sinie stood up, frowned and looked at Gaia approaching in the distance. The silver haired man came slowly. In fact, he kept this speed all the time. Not fast, not slow, but unstoppable!
When he came to syne, he finally stood still. This was the first time Gaia had stopped since chasing syne. Then his eyes fell on the barbecue in Sinie's hand. The latter was surprised and said, "do you want some?"
"If you don't mind," Gaia smiled.
Sinai tore off an eagle leg and threw it to him. Gaia took it, put down his sword, sat down like a stump and ate slowly. Sinai was not polite either. He sat on the stone on the other side and continued to destroy the barbecue that had not been finished just now. The scene was very strange, but no one spoke and everyone ate their own food. After eating all the eagle legs, Gaia clapped his hands. Even if he had just held a greasy Eagle leg, his fingers were still clean, as if the oil couldn't leave any traces on it.
Sinie, on the contrary, ate so well that his mouth was covered with oil that Gaia frowned slightly. Then he saw that Sinie tore off the remaining half of the barbecue and put it on the snow, just as the radiation snow rolled. The low temperature of the snow clashes with the temperature of the barbecue itself, producing bursts of white smoke. When Sinai patted off the snow powder again, the barbecue had been frozen, which could keep the freshness for several days.
Seeing that Sinie put the meat into the bag, Gaia smiled and said, "it seems that you think you can escape from me?"
"Why not?" asked Sinai.
"Confidence is a good thing, but overconfidence is arrogance." Gaia stretched out a finger and said, "for your sake of inviting me to barbecue, I'll ask you again."
"Think about it. It's a good choice to be my companion."
Sinai didn't even think about it, and said faintly, "I refuse."
"What a stubborn guy." Gaia didn't seem to feel too surprised. He held the overgrown sword and said, "well, I'll give you another discount. It's also the last discount. I'll give you enough time to prepare. As long as you can stop me for a minute, I'll stay here for three days. In these three days, you can go anywhere."
"You are so generous," said Sinai.
Gaia nodded and said, "this is a thank-you for your barbecue. I'm not used to accepting the feelings of others, especially a dying guy."
"So you won't attack Luo until I'm ready?"
"Of course."
Sinie suddenly smiled and said, "thank you so much."
He held out his hand and wrapped a sterile gauze around the index finger of his right hand. Sinie took off the gauze and there was a slight wound on his finger. He squeezed the wound with his thumb, picked it out with his fingernail, and then began to bleed from the wound.
Gaia looked at him with great interest, but saw that the blood dripping from his fingers rolled to the ground and finally dispersed. Instead, he tried his best to absorb the nearby snow powder and formed a peristaltic snow ball. After the snowball grew to the size of a fist, it began to fix from a soft shape, and the surface was coated with a layer of metallic luster. Then a row of sharp limbs pop up from both sides and support the body like a spider.
If the shape of the back armor, turn up an eye, and the surrounding of the eye is covered with blood, like the eyeball of a polar creature. Then the front end cracked a seam. As soon as the seam was opened, two rows of staggered sharp teeth emerged. These little monsters open and close their mouths, attack each other with sharp teeth, and make bursts of metal sounds.
"What's this?" Gaia asked.
"I call them biters. Their oral structure is similar to that of piranhas and can produce huge bite force. What they like most is to bite things and bite everything they see... Including you." Sinie said faintly.
"Oh, that's interesting, so let's start." Gaia was about to reach for the handle of his sword.
"No, not yet." Sinie stretched out his hand. "I'm not ready yet."
"Tut, I can't see that you are still a greedy guy."
"Greedy?" Sinie said with a smile, "I don't think so, but since you have given me such a good discount, it's a pity not to use it. Of course, you want to go back."
"I don't have the word repentance in my dictionary. It doesn't matter. Just be ready. I also want to see what kind of biological Corps you can create as a creator?" Gaia even stepped back two steps to show his sincerity.
"Then I'm welcome."
Next, some strange creatures were created in Sinie's hands. His ability is a bit similar to Dr. kode's substance Z, but Dr. kode's substance Z directly forms biological weapons with blood, while syne combines blood with substances in the nearby environment to form biological weapons.
His blood seems to be able to combine with any substance. In addition to the original biter, Sinie created several biological weapons. Combined with nearby rocks, humanoid weapons like stone puppets appear; When combined with ancient trees, the trees shake constantly, and then the branches and leaves fall off and the bark splits. From inside came an ancient tree guard who only raised a wooden shield.
There are even thousands of nano weapons as fine as dust.
Looking at the strange biological Legion in front of him, Gaia finally lost his smile. After making the last biological weapon, Sinie was so tired that he was panting and his face turned pale. But he smiled reluctantly and said, "now you can start."
"That's really good, but I happen to have no patience." Gaia said coldly, clenched the handle of the sword, and looked coldly at the biological army pouring towards him.
The long sword came out of its scabbard, cut out a purple and black light across the world, disappeared into the biological legion, and immediately harvested a large number of biological weapons. But there are too many biological weapons. When they charge together, the whole black forest trembles. Gaia's figure was submerged in countless creatures.
The battle soon ended. After 1 minute and 15 seconds, Gaia put away his long sword. At his feet lay a large body of biological weapons, but Sinie had long disappeared. He only nailed a rag torn from his clothes on the ground with the words "remember your promise". Gaia smiled, and the scabbard was on the cloth, which immediately exploded to pieces.
He closed his eyes, put his sword to the ground, and stood like a statue.
Gaia didn't open her eyes until three days later. At the moment he opened his eyes, he changed from a statue to a person again, and the change of breath was full of drama. Unfortunately, no one saw it, otherwise it would be regarded as a miracle.
Gaia looked around. The body of the biological weapon had been submerged in a piece of radiation snow. Even his head and shoulders are covered with snow powder. It seems that there has been a snow these two days. Snow covered Sinie's footprints, and the wind dispersed his smell. But it doesn't matter. Gaia can feel his existence. No matter how long he leaves or how far he goes, he will always die under his own sword.
With his feet sticking out of the snow, Gaia began to walk forward. Each step was as precise as one, and Gaia walked to the east of the black forest at a constant speed.
